Christmas Eve 2008

A visit from Santa Claus on Christmas Eve
was the best surprise ever.
Early in the evening Paul took his small bag of magic reindeer dust out to the front lawn and sprinkled it around, to guide the reindeer to our home.




Building a Gingerbread house on Christmas Day sure added to the fun.

Lisa and Tim’s Wedding
January 2008

Family arrives from Washington State, Tennessee

and Massachusetts for the big day.


The ladies have pedicures while the guys

are playing golf on Friday morning

The rehearsal

Everyone learns their part for the wedding day.

Now if Paul had only been listening

The day of the wedding Paul while still in the dressing room, discovers the matchbox car in the ring bearers pillow that was suppose to entertain him during the ceremony. When it was time for him to walk Caitlin down the isle he is way to busy running the car up and down the arms of the pews. So Caitlin walks alone, and as Dad walks Lisa down the isle they were not even able to coax him to follow them.


Lisa is the only one he will let dress him the day of the wedding.The melt down began early in the day.

Tim goes down on one knee singing

"Hot for teacher"

By VANHALEN

Beautiful day the weather could not have been nicer. The dinner was great and the only mishap all evening was a bloody lip on Paul from a spill on the dance floor. The Photo booth was the biggest draw for the guests. Tim and Lisa were able to take home an instant scrapbook of the event.
